Just ran into interim @SoundTransit CEO Goran Sparrman on a very crowded train at Wilburton Station. He could hardly contain his excitement.

At BelRed Station, incomplete TOD in one corner, industrial in the other. Should have been built out way more by now. #2Line
Something on here will need to be changed later this year. #2Line
Nice to see our friends @SeattleSubway set up shop at the Bellevue Downtown Station plaza!
Seattle Transit Blog retweeted
The #2Line is officially open! Discover the eight new stations that will connect more people to more places on the Eastside: soundtransit.org/discover2line

What a week! Witnessed the birth of our third baby and saw @SoundTransit open East Link (at least, part of it). Baby comes first so missed the ribbon cutting but excited to take the older kids for a ride in a little bit. #soundtransit #2Line
Seattle Transit Blog retweeted
Eastside light rail line opens as huge crowds try out the ride. Reporter @KromanDavid is on the scene: seattletimes.com/seattle-news/t…
Seattle Transit Blog retweeted
Here at South Bellevue for the 1st (or 2nd?) 2 Line train to Redmond Tech. I guess it’s being held until the ribbon is cut.
Crossing 405 into Bellevue Downtown Station from Wilburton. #2Line #SoundTransit
Northbound / eastbound train leaving Bellevue Downtown Station.

Seattle Transit Blog retweeted
I love riding transit. I choose to be car-free. I believe in the promise of what it can do for people and the planet. Today it took 90min to get from Capitol Hill St to Angle Lake. And 75min back. This system needs to love its riders back.

Cell service in the Downtown Bellevue Tunnel when? @SoundTransit
The trains have arrived! I’ve got goosebumps
Aaaand I have never seen South Bellevue Station’s parking garage this crowded before. Weird to see as a 550 regular. #2Line
Transit-oriented development at Wilburton Station.
Kinkisharyo trains meet at the Spring District on the Link 2 Line.
Trying to go the East Link opening in Bellevue but Route 271 skipped our stop, leaving a dozen behind. The unreliability of @KingCountyMetro buses is a good argument for light rail.
Some good ideas in here about Seattle's future transit plans. One I'd like to highlight: Converting the Ballard–Downtown–West Seattle Line from light rail to automated light metro. This idea has huge potential & could be transformative in thinking about how to build US transit.
How I’d pivot ST3 post-Covid and mitigate the CID conundrum ift.tt/KsCYceH
Look, I'm no transit planning guy. I've said it a million times (I'm FOR it, I just don't have any interest in DOING it). But this is an excellent provocation piece; if only transit planners were in on the convo.
Rethinking ST3 in the Covid Era ift.tt/tATCJLq
A new one spotted on Redfin near the 148th St/Shoreline South Station: "per @SeaTransitBlog 31k cars per day." Car count implying a slightly more favorable connotation than implied on the source cited 😀
Or they could just use the I-5 Express Lanes through downtown. I bet that would save a lot of $$. Stations at James (Harborview/City Hall) and Freeway Park before connecting to Westlake. Pairs well with the future I-5 Express Trail: seattlebikeblog.com/2013/09/13/is-…

@MikeLindblom @PortofSeattle @flySEA @SeaTransitBlog Ahhh calling me out on my bullshit, I see. Hmm I got a couple ideas…. Let me sketch them out.
@supersat @typewriteralley @kcmetrobus @UrbanistOrg @SeaTransitBlog @RavennaBlog *excited trolleybus 🚎 rider noises*
Perhaps it's finally time for me to adapt the presentations I made to the Sammamish City Council in 2019 and 2020 about a Redmond to Issaquah Sammamish Gondola to a @SeaTransitBlog post.
@kettlemoraine @adamac @SeaTransitBlog Could not agree with you more Tim! In the last five years the City's urban center, (Southcenter) has had three residential buildings open, including the one you reference above. More are coming!
@pushtheneedle Don’t be like this dude. Please. I thought you wouldn’t join the broburnist pile on. You know Erica is one of the most long term yimby people.
I can't imagine a more misguided target of a strawman attack than @ericacbarnett. She always brings the nuance so just listen.
Now we’re at the point of the conversation where self identified urbanist guys are saying I am a NIMBY who spends my time at community meetings complaining about density if you wanna know how easily triggered boys can be when you question tech monoculture
